Personally, I use almond flour any time I want to bread something. It adds so much flavor and causes much less guilt. Almond flour or almond meal is just made of finely ground almonds and should have no additives, if you find the right kind. Almond flour is slightly pricey for flour, but it goes a long way and is very versatile. You can buy the Ben Mills version sold at most grocery stores, but you won't get as much bang for your buck. I recommend shopping in the bulk section of your local supermarket and getting the almond meal there. Personal preference. Once you get your favorite kind of almond flour, it is easy to make it into a "breading". I like to add garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper (sometimes even parmesan cheese). You can add any seasonings that you like. You can use this mix to bread most things. I have used this to coat pork chops, zucchini, chicken, and even atop baked spaghetti squash. Below is a recipe for really delicious healthier zucchini squash. Fried ZucchiniSlice Zucchini and place into a ziplock bagPour a few drops of olive oil or coconut oil into the bag and mix with the zucchini slicesPour almond flour batter into the bagShake the mix until the zucchini is coated in flourHeat up oil for frying (I prefer coconut oil) and fry the zucchini at a high temperature*Try dipping in marinara sauce for some extra flavor!
